Microsoft Office 365 for free while studying

Students of the University of Otago are entitled to five Microsoft Office 365 licences for their personal devices. This means you can use Office on your own computers and devices free of charge while you are studying.

Once you've completed the course enrolment declaration and have received your student email address you will be able to download and install Office 365 on up to five of your personal devices.

The table gives a summary of the main Office programs available on each type of device. See below for more information and how to download and install:
